massive YYFY.
last Saturday I had one of those days.
I climbed two projects on my board. one had been a project for a few months now. mega chuffed. really really strong, both phisically and mentally.
I can recall the exact feelings and tactile perceptions. amazing.
this will stay with me forever.
luckily my g/f was in the other room, so she didn't see me with my eyes wet.
I felt the greatest.

If that is not the epitomy of obsession, I don't know what is.   :thumbsup:

My 1000th post!

21 days, 18 hours and 4 minutes spent on the forum since January 15, 2004, only 2 punter points and none of it feels like it was wasted ;)

Thanks to you all for making my life richer and providing me with amusement, intrigue, beta and for generally putting up with me over the past 8 years. Special thanks to Bubba for having the balls to put the forum together in the first place, cheers geez!

Looking forward to the next 8 years and beyond!

If it's work time it's not wasted time.

Won't be long before our accounts dept give me a time code to book UKB time against.

It's pretty meaningless in some cases. I have a UKB tab open all day but it doesn't mean I'm on here during all that time.

Yeah number of posts is a more accurate representation than days/hours.  :guilty:

I think we need some sort of number of posts vs hours logged on vs wad vs punter point analysis...

I wonder who could do that? ;)

The posts/per day metric is already listed on each persons main profile page (not under their stats page) and is based on the days since registering rather than hours(/days) logged into site.

I have an offer from Sheffield Hallam. 

That's great.  You've made a better start than I: the bastards rejected me in 1986, not that I'm bitter about it!

Could you tell me what areas are covered in 5+6 book? It says south and central, I have no idea what that means.

I had a great local session after work last night after pretty much the whole of April off due to a finger injury. My firnd and I warmed up at Newstones where the conditions felt great. We worked thro a really pleasant circuit and moved on to Gibb Tor to get stuck into Fink sitter (A really nice 7B/+ that ive had a couple of good sessions on over the past couple of weeks)
Conditions felt spot on and after a few goes (and a fall from the top after catching the last pocket wrong) I sent it without any mistakes... I love it when a problem pans out like that :)

One of the best problems of its grade in the Western Peak and deffo 7B+ instead of 7B (IMHO)

Did Famous Grouse Sitter this morning, quality problem that I'd given up on so many times before and my first 7C, really thought the chance had gone for the year so well chuffed.
